The EU’s Clean Industrial Deal has the ambition of “turning decarbonisation into a driver of growth for European industries.” How this translates for the European glass industry was the topic of debate at Glass Alliance Europe’s event in May, gathering representatives of both the European Parliament and the European Commission.
Introduced by inDUfed’s Managing Director and Glass Alliance Europe President Thomas Davreux, the event featured interventions from inDUfed members AGC Group Europe and Saint-Gobain.
Discussions focused on answering key questions for the sector and its achieving climate neutrality amidst ongoing trade wars and the energy crisis.
– What will affordable energy look like for our industries?
– How will boosting the demand for clean products be of impact?
– What constitutes clean manufacturing?
– How will the access to critical RawMaterials be ensured?
This gathering underscored the importance of collaborative efforts and innovative solutions in driving the glass industry towards a sustainable future. We are committed to continuing our work with industry leaders and policymakers to ensure that the glass sector remains at the forefront of environmental stewardship and economic resilience.
